This weekend was the third monthly tournament at Liquor Burger in Incheon! This has always been one of my favorite tournament series in Korea. It is relatively low stakes, but for just 5,000₩ (about $4.18 USD) you can enter into both the singles and doubles brackets. Because of the low cost of entry and fun atmosphere, Liquor Burger always gets a great turnout, and a lot of doubles teams! Check out how it all went down:

For the first time ever, we had a three tournament weekend in Korea! At Seoul Smash #4 we saw the return of Korea's #1 Smash 4 player, Tanark. With his return and with most of the best Korean players in attendance, this might have been Korea's most difficult tournament of all time. Meanwhile, at the Bulgogi Smash House Quarterly tournament, the best players in the U.S. military competed in one of the biggest Smash tournaments to ever happen in Korea. Finally, on Sunday, Daegu hosted its first Smash tournament for Smashers that live in the South of Korea! Check out all the action and results here.

I am Benjamin "JJROCKETS" Rowe, a Smash Ultimate Diddy Kong main from Chicago, IL. Currently I live in Daejeon, Korea where I work as an elementary school English teacher. In Brawl and Smash 4, I was known as one of the top Diddy Kong players, and I am looking to continue this success in Ultimate. On my website I will be posting about my travels in Asia, my Smash Ultimate tournament experiences, guides on how to improve at Smash, and random thoughts about life. Besides blog style posts, I also have my tournament schedule with my upcoming events listed, and a compilation of my tournament results in Ultimate.
